The witch is a creature of weather. Wind-summoner. Drought-breaker. Cloud-reader. Flood-flyer. Mist-wearer. She adapts to it, she adjusts the weather to her favour. It's one of her most vital relationships. She wears it on her boots. She wears it on her skin. – #EmilyCBanting #FolkWitchFriday

For I am a salt-hag. I know gull gossip. I know the calling and quelling of storms. My hair is wind-braided. My lips wear rough salt kisses. I stand on the cliffs and read omens pulled by the tide. Be well and avoid my anger. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #FolkWitchFriday #WitchSky

Witchcraft is not consolatory hokum. It doesn't offer tepid answers to hard questions and even harsher circumstances. It offers us relationships with the land, its spirits and ourselves. Relationships may be rough and require work, but they get us through. – #EmilyCBanting #WitchSky
Éðlas Pæð - Ancestral Path... Once again as we begin the slow spiral descent into the darker half of the year, I am feeling more strongly than ever the song of my ancestors - the ancient and beloved dead… www.patreon.com/gabrielletam... #witchsky #heathensky #pagansky #hedgewitch #animism
Shout out to everyone who has ever made art during harrowing times. Thank you.
"...resting deep in the cool darkness of the burial mound. Slowly the entrance was illuminated by a blazing light until it became almost too bright to look at, a figure emerged from the luminous field and stood silhouetted in the entrance waiting to guide me out..." #witchsky #heathensky #pagansky
Even inland, the salt-hag is tide-pulled. Gulls call her to come to shore and see the wave-polished augeries on display. Sea-seasoned winds make promises of things to be summoned at the slack. She walks to her secret cove. Her first glimpse of sea an intoxication. – #EmilyCBanting #WitchSky

The stones store stories like lithic batteries. People anchor tales to them, give them folkloric titles – the Giant's Grave, the Sleepers, the Devil's Toad. In all of this, a recognition that the Long Neolithic lives in our imaginations. – Dr. K. Brophy #StandingStoneSunday

Piskey Hall, fogou. Not technically a standing stone, the Cornish fogou stands in a category all of its own. #Cornwall #StandingStoneSunday #prehistoric #megalithic #ancientsitesunday #sundaystonework @megalithic.bsky.social
"What is wild cannot be bought or sold, borrowed or copied. It is. Unmistakeable, unforgettable, unshamable, elemental as earth and ice, water, fire and air....Don't waste your wildness: it is precious and necessary." - Jay Griffiths Have a good weekend. Lottie and I will be back on Monday.
For the salt-hag knows the power of the tide at its slack, at its moment of its low turning. This is her casting time. An extraction of ills. Troubles taken out to be sea-swallowed. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982, #FolkWitchFriday

The lake of Llyn Cerrig Bach, Anglesey-one of those rare places where the veil between then & now can feel like mist, & never more so than, having spent the weekend hunting for its lost Iron Age artefacts, & with its ancient peat ingrained beneath fingernails, someone lifts a carnyx to their lips 1/
